In reply to Any Meds Effective for GAD?, posted by Louise on November 28, 1999, at 23:08:26
> Xanax is effective for me, but with all the new meds, is there something else out there that is just as effective for treating anxiety, but that won't make me fat, ugly, and miserable? BTW, I tried BuSpar briefly and it did nothing but give me a terrible rash.
Does Xanax make you fat, ugly, and miserable??? :-(
Well anyway, any of the antidepressants, except probably Wellbutrin, might be worth trying. There are also other benzodiazepines such as Klonopin and Ativan that could work as well as Xanax with less frequent dosing (many people can get away with taking Klonopin twice a day).
